About the Hackathon

WOOFi ✖ DeFrens ✖ GoMining — Trading-Bot Competition

Overview

Open hackathon for trading bots on WOOFi Pro. Trade perpetual futures (perps), generate real impact, and climb the leaderboard. Total prizes: $10,000 + partner bonuses.

Register

– 1 team = 1 wallet (only the declared address counts) – Provide: team name, contact (Telegram/Email), wallet address, short bot description – Orders must be executed by a bot (script/scheduler/framework) – No fixed starting balance. Any capital. Deposits/withdrawals allowed; progress measured by executed trades on WOOFi Pro

Where to trade

– Platform: WOOFi Pro – Only perp trades on WOOFi Pro are eligible – Markets/chains: any WOOFi Pro markets available during the event

Leaderboard & metric

– Main metric: Trading Impact (TI) — weighted measure of meaningful executed activity on WOOFi Pro perps. It down-weights ping-pong and empty loops, and accounts for size, exposure time/health, execution quality, and absence of self-matches. Numeric thresholds are not disclosed (anti-gaming). Principle: real trading > artificial turnover – Tiebreakers: (1) executed volume, (2) PnL % (net of fees & funding), (3) earliest fill – Spam patterns and self-matches are excluded

Anti-abuse (strictly forbidden)

– MEV: sandwiching, targeted front/back-running, mempool games to worsen others’ execution – Flash-loan/looping volume inflation, short-lived price “pumps”, ping-pong – Price/oracle manipulation: mark price distortion, attacks on data sources/indexers/nodes; thin pools or affiliated addresses for price games – Wash trading/circular flows: self-matches or “there-and-back” via related wallets/contracts/shared infra – Zero-impact micro-trades to farm TI – Infra abuse: DoS/spam of API/RPC, rate-limit bypass, degrading service availability – Identity: changing declared wallet, hidden sub-accounts, collusion/prize pooling

Prizes (Main pool by TI, total $10,000 USDT)

1st — $6,000 2nd — $2,500 3rd — $1,000 4th — $500
